Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

We lived half way up the hill, you can just see my dad's motorbike and sidecar parked on our front garden. The council told him he couldn't park on there because he wasn't allowed to remove the privit hedge, so he dug them up and replanted them in old wooden ammunition boxes, so that every time he wanted to put the bike on the garden he just had to pull the boxes out of the way and then put them straight back, nobody ever noticed....

RE: RE: Tithe Farm Road

I lived/was born, halfway up the hill, at number 83 Tithe Farm Road, in 1965. I remember learning to play the cello in Tithe Farm Lower School and a couple of times lugging it up the hill to practice it at home, the cello was huge compared to me as you can imagine.
